The pic above was taken using a tripod. Something I am so not use to using. It's like an anchor and slows me down! That being said If I didn't have a tripod surely I would not have captured this beaver enjoying breakfast.
Before calling it a morning I wandered around the swamp edge. Plenty of last years bear scat and skunk cabbage was about to sprout. Surely this looks like a good spot for bears.
On the ride home I stopped at a swamp that is usually good to me. Although cloudy and distant I was able to click a picture of this Blue Winged-Teal
Just before leaving these pair of Green Winged-Teal provided a real far shot.
I will give this swamp another try on a sunny morning. These male ducks would look very nice on a brighter day
